Inner Prophets of Belief

Neville's Inner Vision

Jeremiah’s note about the folly of Samaria’s prophets is a reminder that the real quarrel is not with far-off voices but with our own states of mind. The Baal they serve stands for attachment—the idea that some external word, ritual, or status can finally satisfy the I AM within. When you accept such voices as truth, you mislead your life and err from your natural alignment with God, your true Self. The remedy is a conversion of consciousness: turn away from identifying with the spoken forecast and return to the I AM who perceives all. Let imagination be your instrument, not your tyrant; see the scene in your mind, revise it from limitation to possibility, and feel that you are the author and observer of every event. In this rewrite, the 'prophet' is only a symbol of your current belief, and the inner stillness remains the sovereign reality. Your real task is to dwell as awareness, and let the outward translation align with that truth.
